Can access cards be printed double-sided?

Quick answer

Yes. With a duplex (double-sided) card printer, you can print double-sided directly from Bausicht. With single-sided printer models, we recommend pre-printing the back side (we will send you a design template).

Where to see whether your card template is single- or double-sided

Under Settings → Access cards, the Card sides column shows whether a template is set up as single-sided or double-sided.

Card sides column under Settings → Access cards

Option A: Print double-sided directly (duplex)

  1. Start the card print in Bausicht and select double-sided printing in the print dialog.
  1. Email support@bausicht.com

    • Subject: Card design back side
  2. Send your logo/branding and the desired content

  3. You will receive a print template in the correct size (back-side layout) for pre-printing

  4. Open the file in Windows

  5. Print (keyboard shortcut Ctrl+P or select “Print”)

    • ⚠️ Make sure the driver is installed and the card printer is selected
  6. After printing the back side, reinsert the cards “the other way around” so you can print the front side when needed
